“We’re excited to welcome the community back into the beautiful Fort Salem Theater. It has been closed for too long, and we can’t wait to be part of bringing the performing arts back to Salem and the Capital Region. We are fully committed to offering events that we know audiences will love, while ensuring an environment that offers the safest experience we can provide,” Executive and Artistic Director Kyle West stated. “We’ve intentionally selected small-cast productions with reduced production teams to minimize the number of people at rehearsals and backstage and performances.”
